A medication order calls for the following premixed IV fluid to be infused at 125 mL/hr. The maximum recommended rate of infusion for KCl through a peripheral line is 10mEq/hr. To check that this infusion which is running at a rate of 125 mL/hr is below the maximum recommended rate, calculate the infusion rate of KCl in mEq/hr. Please round the final answer to two decimal places, except no trailing zeros.
